|    U220401 NVidia versus Nouveau, no DKMS u    |
|    13 Aug 22 11:24:06    |
      From: nospam@needed.invalid              I noticed after an update yesterday (would include a kernel),       that nvidia-drm is no longer loading and nouveau is running       my GTX1080.              And no matter what I do in Additional Drivers, like switch from       NVidia to Nouveau and back to NVidia again, the situation does       not change. I end up running Nouveau.              U2204 no longer seems to be using DKMS for NVidia. It may still       be using DKMS for the VirtualBox drivers.              And in terms of blacklists, nouveau is no longer getting blacklisted       when NVidia is selected as an Additional Driver (whether 515 or 470).       I tried blacklisting Nouveau (/etc/modprobe.d added file) and I was ignored.              So now I don't know where to look next. Something must be telling       the OS to not bother with NVidia-drm (Direct Render Module) and       do something else instead.               Paul              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
